Booked very easily via e-mail. My mate being observant noticed it on the other side of the street from where I was looking. Owner was multilingual, friendly and considering he did all the front of house business kept on top of things remarkably well. Cheese Olives and a complimentary Port got the evening off to a good start. We did get the impression he would have preferred it if we had ordered the Cataplana but we loved what we ordered anyway. Cannot really add much to what others have said about the superb musicianship. as a group of six with no previous experience of Fado we really loved it. At the end of the night we were pleasantly surprised at the cost and felt we had got great value for money.

Truly a unique experience! This fado restaurant is NOT a tourist trap. I searched for a good fado restaurant and decided on this one because it seemed the most authentic. The couple cooks, serves and plays the music for this little restaurant. (As well as friends that come and join in with the music). The wine, cheese, olives, everything is home made or home grown which is great! The house wine is actually not bad either! The couple was very lovely and are there to help with your menu choices. It's a very small restaurant so make sure you make a reservation. It is also tucked away in a little street away from many attractions so give yourself some time to get there if you're walking! I highly recommend the traditional portuguese dish "Seafood for Two". It had a mix of seafoods in a oil sauce with a side of rice. It was excellent! The only negative side to this meal was that even though the olives, cheese, etc. were on the table when we got there, we got charged an additional $7 for olives, $5 for cheese and $5 for something else (bread maybe) and we didn't even eat much cheese. I wasn't that mad because I would have tipped on top of my meal anyway... but I would have rather just handed them the $20 for a tip rather than being surprised at the end with these charges.

Hi Everyone. I took a group a college students to Sr. Fado in July 2011. Absolutely wonderful with the owners taking personal attention to you. The food was also very good.

The highlight had to be the Fado performance. The owner is a fine guitarist and brings in several of his friends to play with him. His family and friends are the singers. It is almost like you are at your own home--- it is that intimate. The performance goes until about 1am and times flies. I wish it did not end.

I highly recommend a visit to Sr. Fado be a part of any trip to Lisbon.

A charming little restaurant on an easy to find street from the metro (although map recommended) in the Alfama district. We were made to feel at home right away. The owner is warm-hearted and sincere. The food is very good. We were served right away with wine and warm bread. We ordered the seafood special for the evening and it was very tasty. The music was wonderful. Its a small place so they really take the time to talk to all the guests. I cant imagine going here and not having a great time. They even asked everyone who wanted a taxi and called for us at the end of the evening. I would recommend anyone who wants to experience Fado to come here; you can make a reservation straight from this site. Thank you Sr. Fado for such a delightful evening in Lisbon!
